The Farley Center Advisory Board had been developed with a different purpose and function than our working board. It consisted of individuals whose work and activities exemplify some of the goals of the Farley Center, and whose advice was wanted and welcomed when requested or they were moved to give it. They helped connect the Farley Center mission to a broader understanding of ecological justice. Their name recognition helped others understand what the Center is about. We honor and thank these individuals who helped launch Gene Farley’s vision into what the Farley Center is today.
